The document mentions "MUSICA image processing" and "MUSICA Digital TomoSynthesis (DTS) images" which are image processing techniques, but there is no mention of AI, ML, deep learning, or any related terms. The description of testing focuses on image quality validation and functionality, not on the performance of an AI/ML algorithm.
No.
The device is used for diagnostic imaging examinations (fluoroscopy, rapid sequence, and tomographic slices) to visualize anatomy, not for therapeutic intervention.
Yes
The device is used to perform dynamic imaging examinations (fluoroscopy and/or rapid sequence) and acquire tomographic slices of human anatomy, with the stated purpose that the "MUSICA Digital TomoSynthesis (DTS) images were suitable for diagnosis for both adult and pediatric patients," indicating its use in diagnosing medical conditions.
No
The device description explicitly states it is a "floormounted radiographic, fluoroscopic and tomographic system that consists of a tube and operator console with a motorized tilting patient table and bucky with optional wall stand, FLFS overlay and ceiling suspension." This indicates significant hardware components beyond just software.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are tests performed on samples taken from the human body, such as blood, urine, or tissue, to detect diseases, conditions, or infections.
- Device Function: The DR 800 system is an X-ray imaging system. It uses X-rays to create images of the internal structures of the body. This is an in vivo (within the living body) diagnostic method, not an in vitro method.
- Intended Use: The intended use clearly describes imaging procedures performed directly on the patient (fluoroscopy, radiography, tomosynthesis) for various anatomical sites. There is no mention of analyzing samples taken from the body.
Therefore, the DR 800 system is a medical imaging device used for in vivo diagnosis, not an in vitro diagnostic device.

Device Description
Agfa's DR 800 with Tomosynthesis a tomographic and fluoroscopic x-ray system (product codes IZF and JAA) intended to capture tomographic slices of the human body. The DR 800 is a floormounted radiographic, fluoroscopic and tomographic system that consists of a tube and operator console with a motorized tilting patient table and bucky with optional wall stand, FLFS overlay and ceiling suspension. The new device uses Agfa's NX workstation with MUSICA image processing and flat-panel detectors for digital and wide dynamic range capture. It is capable of replacing other direct radiography, tomography, image intensifying tubes and TV cameras, including computed radiography systems with conventional or phosphorous film cassettes.
This submission is to add the newest version of the DR 800 with Tomosynthesis to Agfa's radiography portfolio.
The image processing algorithms in the new device are similar to those previously cleared in the DR 800 with MUSICA Dynamic (K180589) and other devices in Agfa's radiography portfolio today which includes DR 600 (K152639) and DR 400 (K141192). The addition of the tomographic image processing is similar to the predicate device (K132261).
Principles of operation and technological characteristics of the new and predicate devices are the same. The new device is virtually identical to Agfa's DR 800 with MUSICA Dynamic (K180589) with the exception that it has additional MUSICA Digital TomoSynthesis (DTS) software for processing tomographic slices. The Discovery XR656 with VolumeRAD (K132261) contains similar software for processing tomographic slices of human anatomy. It uses the same flat panel detectors to capture and digitize the image. Differences in devices do not alter the intended diagnostic effect. Laboratory data and image quality evaluations conducted with independent radiologists confirm that performance is equivalent to the predicates.
Configuration information for the flat-panel detectors can be found in the DR 14s (K161368) and DR 800 (K180589) User Manuals. The DR 14s and RF FL4343 detectors can be integrated in an X-ray system that communicates to a workstation. The Service Manual details the possible configurations and integrations with the NX workstation and X-ray generator. All of Agfa's DR X-ray systems (i.e. DX-D 100-K103597, DX-D 300-K103050, DX-D 600-K112670, DR 400-K141192, DR 600-K152639, DR 800 with MUSICA Dynamic -K180589) will integrate with the detectors. The NX4.x.21 Service Manual, Chapter 4 and associated appendices addresses the installation and configuration with other system components.

The results of these tests fell within the acceptance criteria for the DR 800 X-ray system, confirming support for radiographic, fluoroscopic, and tomosynthesis workflow including dynamic and static imaging, continuous and rapid sequence exams, tomographic slices calibration, and positioning.
- Image Quality Validation testing was conducted using anthropomorphic phantoms and evaluated by qualified independent radiographers and internal experts. The image quality validation included testing a full range of applications for the DR 800 X-ray system with Tomosynthesis compared to reference images from primary predicate GE Discovery XR656 with VolumeRAD (K132261) using anonymized adult and pediatric phantoms. The pediatric phantom image quality validation testing analyzed five tomographic slices at 5x the dose and five tomographic slices at 10x the dose. Both the 5x the dose and 10x the dose images are clinically sufficient and within the intended use. The test results indicated that the reconstruction software of the image processing for Digital TomoSynthesis (DTS) of the DR 800 X-ray system passed the acceptance criteria and that the DR 800 with Tomosynthesis is capable of making DTS studies for both adult and pediatric patients. The test results showed MUSICA Digital TomoSynthesis (DTS) images were suitable for diagnosis for both adult and pediatric patients.
No clinical trials, animal studies, or clinical studies were performed.

COMPARISON OF TECHNOLOGICAL CHARACTERISTICS WITH VI. PREDICATE DEVICES
Agfa's DR 800 with Tomosynthesis and GE Medical System's Discovery XR656 with VolumeRAD primary predicate device (K132261) are tomographic x-ray imaging devices, Product Code IZF. The DR 800 with Tomosynthesis also has product code JAA which is identical the Agfa DR 800 with MUSICA Dymanic predicate device (K180589). Agfa's DR 800 is substantially equivalent to the primary predicate device (K132261) in that it uses precisely the same technology to capture and transmit images. The DR 800 is a floor-mounted radiographic, fluoroscopic and tomographic system that consists of a tube and operator console with a motorized tilting patient table and bucky with optional wall stand, FLFS overlay and ceiling suspension. The new device uses Agfa's NX workstation with MUSICA image processing and flat-panel detectors for digital and wide dynamic range image capture. It is capable of replacing other direct radiography, tomography, image intensifying tubes and TV cameras, including computed radiography systems with conventional or phosphorous film cassettes.
Principles of operation and technological characteristics of the new and predicate devices are the same. The new device is virtually identical to Agfa's DR 800 with MUSICA Dynamic (K180589) with the exception that it has additional MUSICA DTS software for processing tomographic slices. The Discovery XR656 with VolumeRAD (K132261) contains similar software for processing tomographic slices of human anatomy. It uses the same flat panel detectors to capture and digitize the image. Differences in devices do not alter the intended diagnostic effect.

The optional image processing allows users to conveniently select image processing settings for different patient sizes and examinations. The image processing algorithms in the new device are similar to those previously cleared in the DR 800 with MUSICA Dynamic (K180589) and other devices in Agfa's radiography portfolio today which includes DR 600 (K152639) and DR 400 (K141192). The addition of the tomographic image processing is similar to the predicate device (K132261).
Agfa's DR 800 with Tomosynthesis has an Indications For Use statement virtually identical to the predicate device (K180589) except it includes the addition of tomosynthesis. Intended uses are the same. The devices have the same technological characteristics.
The DR 800 indications for use is equivalent to the primary predicate (K132261) because both include the delineation of anatomical areas and imaging applications and application of tomosynthesis. The DR 800 and both predicate devices (K180589 & K132261) include the statement that the device is not indicated for mammography.
Descriptive characteristics and performance data including image quality evaluations by qualified radiologists are adequate to ensure equivalence. Differences in devices do not alter the intended therapeutic/diagnostic effect.
Table 1 on the next page summarizes the similarities and differences between the new device and predicate.

The image quality validation included testing a full range of applications for the DR 800 X-ray system with Tomosynthesis compared to reference images from primary predicate GE Discovery XR656 with VolumeRAD (K132261) using anonymized adult and pediatric phantoms. The pediatric phantom image quality validation testing analyzed five tomographic slices at 5x the dose and five tomographic slices at 10x the dose. Both the 5x the dose and 10x the dose images are clinically sufficient and within the intended use. The test results indicated that the reconstruction software of the image processing for Digital TomoSynthesis (DTS) of the DR 800 X-ray system passed the acceptance criteria and that the DR 800 with Tomosynthesis is capable of making DTS studies for both adult and pediatric patients. The test results showed MUSICA Digital TomoSynthesis (DTS) images were suitable for diagnosis for both adult and pediatric patients.
Performance data including clinical image quality evaluations for adults and pediatric patients, performance/functionality and usability data are adequate to ensure equivalence.
Software Verification and Validation Testing
Verification and validation plans comprise of test protocols. The complete device has been certified and validated. During the final risk analysis meeting, the risk management team concluded that the medical risk is no greater than with conventional x-ray film previously released to the field.
For the NX4.x.21 (NX Mentor) there are a total of 322 risks in the broadly acceptable region and 27 risks in the ALARP region with only eight of these risks identified. Zero risks were identified in the Not Acceptable Region. Therefore, the device is assumed to be safe, the benefits of the device are assumed to outweigh the residual risk. The software risk assessment is assessed on solution level for the DR 800 and also includes separate risk assessments for the NX4.x.21 software and XRDI.
The term "Level of Concern" means the level of risk that the software device is determined to be if the software were to fail. The Level of Concern for the DR 800 and NX4.x.21 has been determined to be moderate.

VIII. CONCLUSIONS
Agfa's DR 800 has indications for use that is consistent with those of the legally marketed predicate devices (K132261 and K180589). Intended uses are the same. Where technological characteristics differ lab tests concluded that the device is substantially equivalent to the predicates in that it does not alter the intended therapeutic/diagnostic effect.
The new device and the Discovery XR656 with VolumeRAD primary predicate device (K132261) are tomographic x-ray systems Product Code IZF. The DR 800 with Tomosynthesis also has product code JAA which is identical the Agfa DR 800 with MUSICA Dymanic predicate device (K180589). Agfa's DR 800 with Tomosynthesis is substantially equivalent to both predicate devices (K132261 & K180589) in that it uses precisely the same technology to capture and transmit images.
This 510(k) has demonstrated Substantial Equivalence as defined and understood in the Federal Food Drug and Cosmetic Act and various guidance documents issued by the Center for Devices and Radiological Health.
